Surf's Up 2: WaveMania

Okay so, the original was awesome, watched it when I was 6. I always thought the movie would have great potential for a sequel and it would be also just as good to be a standalone movie. I completely forgot about Surf's Up for a long time. It was only a few weeks ago that I just found out that a sequel came out months ago. I was really excited, and I didn't know what to expect! Watched online... It didn't turn out as good as I thought it would be. The story completely removes the first movies original story. Having Cody say that he was always looking up to the Hang 5, which is a group of surfers voiced by WWE stars. In the first movie, Cody always looked up to Big Z. Basically, the movie was still watchable, but it's not the sequel anyone had wanted. The story does not really coexist with the original story. I am really bummed out due to the fact that this movie was not the sequel I wanted.

Had to turn it off after 10 minutes, this movie destroys the legacy of Surf's Up.

Voice actor performances, dialogue, animation, even Chicken Joe... every part of this movie seems like a downgrade from the original.

With the exception of Jon Heder and Diedrich Bader reprising their roles, this movie was a complete letdown. Story was contrived, writing was low-grade, the whole ESPN-style format comes and goes without context, and half the voices are cheesy wrestlers with zero acting chops. I loved the first one. I hated this one.

My three kids love Surf's Up. We bought this sequel for them and it wasn't such a hit. The youngest one is the only one who will watch it. She doesn't get it but she watches it. The first one is totally enjoyable even as an adult. This sequel is extremely poor. I can't sit through even 10 minutes of it myself. My suggestion; don't make eye contact and just keep walking by.

First Of All Nearly No Surfing Second Of All No Surfing=Boring
